    Laborers killed in A.C. may get tribute on Boardwalk By BRIDGET MURPHY
    ATLANTIC CITY - From a painter to a casino chamber maid to a firefighter, the names of nearly two dozen union laborers killed on the job here since the casino era began greet anyone who has stopped to look at a memorial in the small park at Arkansas and Arctic avenues.

    But a few months after four more laborers joined their ranks following the Tropicana garage collapse, all of the union workers' sacrifices soon may be recognized with a tribute in one of the city's most visible areas: Kennedy Plaza on the Boardwalk.
